Purpose of this Page

Why create yet another page about software? Because, on more than one occasion, I’ve set out to find a proper web site for a particular software title, only to encounter a 404 (i.e. Apache server code return on File not found error), or some other obstacle between me and that which I know is out there.

I made this extra section to serve as a temporary resting place for notes about a software web site, or software itself, whatever– but so I can just jump in here and write, get back to whatever task I had been involved in. In this manner, I hope to actually write those entries which I might likely have otherwise simply abandonded the thought, for fear that I’d lose too much time from the work of the real project at hand, what ever it might be at that time. It’s a mind-game I play with myself, you might say.

I hope to moderate and place these items where they belong, as soon as I’m able. Until then, my apologes for the state of disarry.

Caution:

Among the URL’s listed below, there may be some where are not yet verified. Please use your on-deman virus scanner immediately upon downloading files– I’m not talking about those below, but EVERYthing you download. You can never be too careful about that issue. The spread of malware onto third party servers has been reported to be increasing– making the unsuspecting visitor– and even the owner of those sites, unknowledgable of the existing infection. Such web sites become infected in no small part to poorly implemented javascript resources, such as Ajax and other dangerous code. When an unknowledgable developer slaps a bunch of code on his or her server, and a decent UI comes of– it is a security hole, like thin ice. Because so many such sites are riddled with poorly coded applications, XSS (Cross Site Scripting) is more common now than ever before. Just be careful out there!
